Love within the storms

Love within the storms

A Poem by bella

i am madly in love with lightening 
She doesn't know but I carefully watch her dance through the sky
I am engulfed with passion for thunder 
I've never said a word but every night I let his voice awaken me 
She's electrifying 
He's heart stopping 
The way her core is a happy yellow and sultry indigo follows down her curves 
How his vibrations seek me out and illuminate me from within 
She could shock and scold me and I'd be eternally grateful 
I spend my nights as the only light for he is a night creature 
I am hopelessly in love with her 
I'm enamored by him 
I need our energies to collide
My bolts are reaching out for him

Has the sound of a menage a trois. A dangerous game, especially considering the participants.

Was this a collaborative effort, or did you just write from both parties point of view? Nice use of imagery.

This is a great mash-up of imagination! Your extended metaphor is fleshed out with a ton of detail & feeling. I love how arresting your first line is -- way to grab the reader's attention, direct, powerful! I felt a little let down by the use of "yellow" -- so ordinary, compared to the way lightning flashes. I think there must be a more intense way to express the brightness of lightning, other than "yelllow" . . . that's my only bump in reading this. I love how you convey a sense of affection & adoration (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie

Wonderful use of words and thoughts. The strength of thunder, loved by many. I liked the energy and the drive of your words. Perfect ending of the outstanding poetry dear bella.

How terribly sensual. Although -- can vibrations illuminate? And truly from lightning *emanates* thunder, so the metaphor sprints, then can't but stagger . . . no disappointment here, though. Appreciate the perspectives contraposed and interlocked. "Electrifying" -- "heart-stopping" -- cute! The use of "bolts" for a feminine character feels inappropriate; too phallic, assertive, masculine for me, especially when curves are referenced preceding . . . perhaps tendrils, dendrites, branches? For your consideration.

Thanks for sharing, bodacious bella, Miss Buoyant of House Beach Ball.
